The "Speaker" described as "ware", in Hitomaro's Banka, differs from one poem to another in its situation. "Ware" in each poem is discussed from the standpoint that they are used differently because the author gropes for an effective means of elegiac lyricism description. While criticizing Sokura Takeshi's viewpoint recently presented in his "the Subject of Creation in Hitomaro Ritual Poems", it is proven that an introduction of the "speaker" 's point of view is effective as a means to study Waka poems of the early stage of the ancient period.

Genji Monogatari has a complicated structure with multi-viewpoints and multi-strata. It takes the form of a group of stories in the style of narratives handed down through the plural stages by the plural narrators. This particular style was demanded because the content is closely related to the disorder of the royal family. By taking the style of multi-viewpoints and multi-strata, the most silrious part of the story is told indirectly and suggestively.

An epoch-making factor in the history of monogatari literature is that "the successors" came to exist as the actual narrators. The significance of this existence, as well as the existence of the copyist viewed as having a new relationship to the narrators, is discussed. Specifically explained is the narrator's tecnique of making a parody out of an oral story. Furthermore the narrator's tecnique for the mustration of the image of "marebito" who suddenly appears and disappears is discussed. Hence, the narrator is proven to be the authority. The copyist, who has been always a vague existence in the history of the literature study, is proven to be a court lady who waited on Kenshi. By taking advantage of the linguistic state in the Insei period, the function and significance of the copyist is analyzed jn terms of the fiction created.

When considering the formative process of the full-length Yomihon Novels in the late Kinsei period, it goes without saying that Bakin contributed greatly to it by writing Yomihon Novels and criticism. However, this is the very reason why the possibility of Yomihon novels as Kinsei prose is confined. To search the possiblilties of Yomihon novels as Kinsei prose, a group of works are picked up and discussed from the Kyoden Yomihon novels, in which "katari narrative" plays an important part.

Wagahai wa Neko de Aru is not a satire but a humorous novel. The world of "Cat" consists of both the reality of dreary routine and the fantasy world in which "he" can loiter in the space and time of innnity. The narrator is Cat who is situated on the boundary between cats and human beings. He turns his consciousness toward a universal fantasy, but this is refracted toward the earthly world and thus dwarfed. The world of Yokyoshu is just the other side of the world of Cat. The former was incomplete until Cat was born. The world of Cat is the starting point of Soseki literature. The eyes of Cat come alive through the developmental process of Soseki literature.

Fictional language is a unique divice for recognizing reality by looking at things in "dissimilation". The author's subjective standpoint of "dissimilation" is renected in the fictional language. The narrator, sent from the author's place, knows the content of the story in detail. The narrator gives the whole story as a complete form. However, this narrator is not almighty. His viewpoint is just relative, because reality can be recognized only subjectively. The narrator's function is to hold the author's subjective recognition of reality and to present it to the readers both indirectly and secondarily. An attempt is made to pursue the history of this function and the viewpoint formation of narrator, by analyzing some literary works.
